We're living in our new home in Decorah now, but we haven't moved our furniture and most of our worldly goods out of storage yet. We're doing a bit of remodeling and hope to let the sawdust settle a bit before we move everything in. Meanwhile, we're busy getting ready to do some painting, etc. Here are a couple of "before and after" shots to show what's going on:

Living Room BEFORE (with previous owners' furniture). You can't quite see the wall that begins to the left of the stairs up to the dining area. |

AFTER: The new kitchen and dining area will be much more open to the living room. The stairs will also be wider. |

Kitchen AFTER with no wall. The beam in the ceiling will go next. Openness is the theme. |
Stay tuned for more updates on the new kitchen project. It will be at least another month before all is complete.
